Leopard Sample Code: Games
Networking capabilities in Mac OS X include support for the major protocols and services. These are accessible through sockets and Core Foundation, as well as through the higher-level Carbon and Cocoa APIs. Developers who need to take advantage of networking in their games can use Bonjour (zero-configuration networking), an industry-standard mechanism for auto-discovery of computers, devices, and services on IP networks.
